Dear Viewers,
During this season of hope, I’d like to tell you about Cara. I hope her story will motivate you to make a holiday gift to The Cancer Project.
In a scenario that has become all too familiar, Cara—“a model of health”—got the devastating news that she had breast cancer. Her quest to improve her chances to beat this disease led her to The Cancer Project. We supplied her with free, practical information about nutrition’s critical role in the survival of her cancer.
With resounding confidence, Cara faced her battle head on. When her chemotherapy treatment left her feeling miserable and everything around her seemed so much out of control, she was empowered and comforted knowing that she was able to control what she put into her body by eating cancer-fighting, protective foods. The Cancer Project became a life saving resource for her.
Cara is now in remission and credits the help of The Cancer Project and diet changes for playing a big role in surviving her health crisis. Now Cara is one of 63 Food for Life Nutrition and Cooking Classes for Cancer Prevention and Survival class instructors, dedicated to sharing her success and helping empower thousands of others.
We have the power to enhance clinical medical treatment and to reduce the deadly toll of cancer. You have the power to help with a gift.
We owe it to all the other people like Cara to make sure that they also have the information necessary to save their lives. The Cancer Project is made up of physicians, dietitians, and nutrition experts who are also fighting tirelessly to help people survive and prevent cancer.
During this season of hope and giving, please remember The Cancer Project. A gift of $25, $35, $50 or any amount will go a long way toward helping to wipe out cancer—a disease that can be beaten if we work together.
Thank you for caring,
Neal Barnard, M.D. President
P.S. Your tax-deductible holiday gift will provide The Cancer Project with funding for clinical research, free educational classes, and outreach to underserved communities. Together we can provide hope for a cancer-free future. Please donate today.
